  • Page 11 ● Adjust measurement result for influence of optical window. BH1715FVC is including in adjust measurement result function for influence of optical window. Adjust is done by changing measurement time. For example, if transmission rate by optical window is 1 / N, then adjust is done by measurement time is set to "initial value * N".
